Try one of Ulrich's pre-installed images instead, and see if the problem persists. https://www.lazybrowndog.net/freedos/virtualbox/ It could be something rare (RAM or hard drive problem), but for now I'm assuming otherwise. > Is this a VirtualBox issue? Maybe. Which version (5.x? 64-bit? host OS?) are you using? VT-X enabled? Other relevant settings (e.g. memory managers loaded? HIMEMX only? JEMMEX?)? You could maybe file a VBox bug report, but you'd have to give them a LOT more details. Besides, I don't think DOS is top priority for them to fix anyways. Honestly, it's probably user error (more likely than not) than actual bugs, but you never know. > Is this a FreeDOS issue? Highly doubtful. What kernel ("ver /r")? Never mind, presumably whatever came with 1.1 (e.g. 2040). > Thanks for anyone's help. You could also just use QEMU instead.
